It’s been over half a year since Barbie opened in theaters, and there’s still a lot of talk surrounding what CinemaBlend ranked as one of the best movies of 2023. Among the many things this movie has going for it is its all-star cast, which included looping in Michael Cera as Allan, although his manager

It’s been nearly five years since we saw Sansa Stark get crowned Queen in the North and her half-brother Jon Snow lead the Wildlings to the lands beyond the Wall in that polarizing Game of Thrones series finale. So it’s high time for a Stark family reunion, and I’m not the only one who thinks

It has been over 20 years since the release of Lost In Translation, and it is widely considered to be one of the best films of the 2000s. The critically-acclaimed 2003 Sofia Coppola-directed film stars Bill Murray as Bob, an aging American actor who finds his star power to be dimming, so he ends up

It was a sad day for the world when The Fast and the Furious actor Paul Walker died in a car accident. His daughter, Meadow, was only 15 years old when she lost her father and has continuously made sure to honor his memory. While the American model is all grown up now, the 25-year-old

Jennifer Garner once called making 2004’s 13 Going On 30—which still totally holds up 20 years later, BTW—one of the “happiest” parts of her life. So, it’s not a surprise that she would take time out of her busy schedule to support (and roast) one of her buddies from the beloved rom-com: Mark Ruffalo, who

It’s always fun to hear about a new Stephen King adaptation in the works, as it perpetually gets the imagination cranking with big questions. Who will star? How will key scenes come to life? How will the new medium influence changes? It’s always exciting, and this week’s edition of The King Beat is happy to

Shrek, one of Dreamworks Animations’ best films, is about a green ogre who makes a deal with Lord Farquaad to rescue a princess in order to salvage control of his swamp overrun by fairy tale creatures. Believe it or not, while Shrek is obviously a cultural phonemon, the lovable ogre is also a hit with

The road from “professional actor” to “movie star” is different for everybody. There isn’t always a single role that marks the transition from one to the other, but with Brad Pitt‘s career, one cannot discount the importance that Legends of the Fall had for him. It was one of his earliest breakout roles, but it

Anybody who grew up in the ‘80s or ‘90s is likely aware of the brightly colored stickers and school supplies designed by Lisa Frank. So it’s pretty easy to assume that there’s some nostalgia-fueled intrigue for the upcoming horror comedy Lisa Frankenstein. This movie with the clever portmanteau title puts an ‘80s twist on a

A Highlander reboot has been in development in one form or another for over a decade and a half, but the project has finally been making significant progress over the last few years. One of the biggest steps forward has been the casting of Henry Cavill, who’s had a lot to say about the project

When thinking about the ‘80s, there are three actors who immediately come to my mind-Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, and Carl Weathers. And while Schwarzenegger and Stallone are thankfully still alive and active, we recently lost the magnificent Carl Weathers.    As a movie fan, Carl Weathers’ death depresses me, but as a Black movie fan,

Unappreciated at the time of its release, despite being one of the best horror movies of the 2000s, Jennifer’s Body has become a cult classic in the world of horror movies. The screenwriter of the Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried-led horror-comedy Diablo Cody has returned to the genre with a new film called Lisa Frankenstein.

Warning: SPOILERS for Argylle are in play. If you haven’t learned the secrets of Elly Conway’s world of espionage, you’ve been warned.  Director Matthew Vauhgn’s Argylle has to be the first title of the 2024 movie schedule with as many twists and turns as this film has to offer. Thanks to a promising mid-credits scene,

There are moments where time seems to move faster than we realize. One moment we’re heralding the arrival of the 2024 movie schedule, and the next, a surprise Jurassic World follow-up is being announced to the public. As it turns out, those previous reports stating the project was further along than anyone had known are

Actor Jacob Elordi is one of the biggest names in Hollywood right now, coming off of the well-reviewed Saltburn, which has been a much-talked-about drama this season. Much of the talk has been about a particular Saltburn bathtub scene. However, right now Elordi is a topic of conversation surrounding a recent incident in Australia that

We know that Dune Part Two is heading to the big screen very soon and is one of the most anticipated movies of 2024. The cast is also incredibly stacked, with stars like Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya and Austin Butler starring in the sci-fi sequel. With such a fun assortment of actors, there were bound to

When it comes to the best movies of the 1990s, Clueless is definitely up there! It’s not only a hilarious high school comedy with all its quotable lines and fashion moments, it’s a pop culture minefield of the era! While the original cast of Clueless is absolutely perfect, over the years, it’s been revealed that

There has been much discourse about Bryce Dallas Howard and the heels she wore in the first Jurassic World film. The most famous scene, of course, is one in which Dearing is running away from a T-Rex in two pencil-thin shoes, a memorable shot on the big screen and one that has lived on in

These days, it’s not easy for a comedy movie with a theatrical release to make a dent at the box office, but it’s certainly not impossible. 2023’s highest-grossing movie of the year, Barbie, was technically a comedy, but it did have the name of the most famous doll as its title. Other movies, like No

I have been obsessed with 28 Days Later ever since I first saw the trailer when my dad took me to see X2: X-Men United back in May 2003. Since then, I’ve watched it countless times and still consider it one of the best zombie apocalypse movies, even though the infected aren’t really undead ghouls.

Although Harrison Ford is the only actor to appear in all five Indiana Jones movies, there have been a handful of people who’ve paired with Dr. Henry Jones Jr. for more than one adventure. Among them is John Rhys-Davies, who first played longtime friend Sallah in Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade,

Keke Palmer’s movies and TV shows show her acting chops shining in all sorts of ways. From her breakthrough role playing a Spelling Bee contestant in Akeelah and the Bee to starring in Jordan Peele’s Nope, she has an uncanny knack for putting spunk, power, and personality into her performances. Now that the True Jackson,

That recent 28 Days Later good news which revealed that not only were Danny Boyle and Alex Garland reteaming to make 28 Years Later but that the horror sequel officially found a studio home and roped in original lead Cillian Murphy to produce and potentially star should please all zombie-movie fans. However, there’s one famous fan who

After literal decades of fans asking for a sequel to Beetlejuice one has finally been filmed. Beetlejuice 2 details, as far as we know them, will see much of the Beetlejuice cast return and it will see the “ghost with the most” back on the big screen. While we’re still waiting for our first look

Tragedy can strike anywhere, even in Hollywood. In fact, it sometimes happens on film sets. Even though all sets have serious safety precautions in place, horrible accidents still happen and sometimes actors, crew members, or both, are killed. Here is our list of some of those tragic stories when people died on a film set.

As one of the best action movies to have ever graced the big screen, Kurt Russell and John Carpenter’s Escape from New York remains an all-time classic. As a major influence on Hideo Kojima’s equally iconic PlayStation game Metal Gear Solid, the resemblance between that pixelated protagonist and his flesh and blood namesake has always

Earlier this month, horror fans were delivered some incredible news. After years of waiting, it was officially announced not only that Danny Boyle and Alex Garland were reteaming to make 28 Years Later – a new sequel to 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later – but that the project would potentially set up even

Despite being one of the best movies of 2023, by the time I heard the rumblings about Past Lives, it was already on its way out of theaters. I spent several months living vicariously through praising social media posts, waiting for the moment the movie would be released on a streaming platform. When awards season

It is always so cool to see when former child stars continue to act to this day, which also tends to remind us of the former child stars whom we do not see very often anymore, if not at all. It begs the question, what are they doing these days? Well, allow us to provide

007 isn’t just a man known for his slick trigger finger for her majesty, he’s also got his own way with words. As the James Bond movies have offered many quotable lines for fans to throw out at the right time, it’d be a shame not to celebrate that fact. So let’s take some time
